January's Family Devotional

“Got Self-Control?” Devotional

Follow the link above and choose the age appropriate activity for your child(ren) on self-control.  Grade school children will also receive the following application tool from KidsTown on January 7th that you can incorporate.

APPLICATION TOOL :: Game Changers
(One week only!!  Don’t miss out! Weekend of January 7/8)
We have all experienced and even our kids get caught up in the fact that life is moving so fast and when we get stressed out we have all had the moment when we say biting words or make a hurtful move before we can even think.  It's time for a game changer—THE Game Changer, in fact! This cool wristband reads “game on” on one side and “game off” on the other. When your child comes home with one, encourage them to wear it all month and when you see their temperature rising, say “STOP”!  Remind them to grab their “game on” wristband and flip it around to the “game off” side. Encourage them to take a few moments to breathe, pray, and plan their next words or moves with self-control. Then they can flip that wristband back and, oh yeah … its game on!  You may find out that it helps YOU as well!
